And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
Ahora bien, en el sistema antiguo había muchos sacerdotes porque seguían muriendo. Ninguno de ellos podía permanecer para siempre para terminar el trabajo.
El sistema antiguo necesitaba muchos sacerdotes porque todos morían y no podían servir permanentemente.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Old Testament, priests were selected from the tribe of Levi to serve in the tabernacle or temple, carrying out sacrifices and intercession for the people of Israel. However, these priests were mortal and died, which meant their roles had to be passed on to successors, resulting in a succession of many priests over time. The author of Hebrews uses this historical reality to build an argument about the superiority of Jesus' priesthood, which is eternal and unchanging.
